Opportunity Roulette

Used in a business context. Contacting a lead that you think may be open to the idea of purchasing the products or services your business sells, but having no idea whether they are in a position to do so right now, or if your business is even in the conversation.

- Assign salespeople to industries
- Set an expected number of invites sent by X date

- All non-responded invites followed up within seven days
- Final number collated in four week
Sound okay?
